The frightening growth of bacterial infections and their resistance to most first-line antibiotic drugs have made antibacterial therapy challenging. High accuracy, reduced time and effort, high cost, and a theoretical chemical study to find alternative treatments are preferable considerations. Chemical programs designed 150 fluoroquinolones in a theoretical study, and determined the top five based on their optimal binding affinity. The binding affinity (G) was calculated in Swiss Dock; a more negative G indicates a more suitable binding between the compound and the protein. This study selected the top five fluoroquinolones against each protein. The ΔG calculations indicate compound B has the highest inhibitory activity against Staph

This approach enabled the production of high-purity nanoparticles. The characteristics of the nanoparticles that were created were examined by the use of UV-Vis, and XRD analysis techniques. The antibacterial and antifungal properties of the tested substance were evaluated against two Gram-positive bact

This study aims to find the time-dependent potential terms in the two inverse problems of the third-order pseudo-parabolic with initial and various boundary conditions supplemented by the overdetermination data. The nonlinear inverse problems have significant applications in physics and engineering fields. We proved the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the two problems are being proved, but they still need to be proposed (since tiny perturbations in input data cause considerable errors in the output potential term). Consequently, the regularized methods should be employed. A finite difference schema is used for solving direct problems. In contrast, the inverse problems were reformulated as nonlinear least-square minimization a

        The study examines the impact of thickness on the electrical resistance of Ruthenium at room temperature. By applying the Fuchs-Sondheier and Mayadas Shatzkces models, the study establishes a linear relationship between thickness and grain boundary scattering. The M.S. model is crucial in calculating the size impact, accounting for all types of scattering affecting grain boundaries. On the other hand, the F.S. model focuses on explaining conduction electron scattering on material surfaces, particularly on tiny grains. The study's equation, derived from these two models, considers surface scattering and metal resistance to determine an experimental thickness that depends on metal resistivity. The Boltzmann Equation can be ut
